I just read an interesting article about internet dating by Liz H. Kelly, who’s a dating coach and author of “SMART Man Hunting.”

She says that these ten questions are great ways to “ignite sparks online”:

• Where did you get that fantastic smile?
• What is your favorite ice cream flavor and why?
• What is the most romantic place that you’ve been on a date?
• What would you do if we got stuck in a snow storm in the mountains?
• If you were going to take me out for a romantic evening, what would we do?
• What is your favorite thing to do with a partner for fun?
• If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?
• How long have you played guitar? (Ask about something in their profile.)
• Wow, is that your cute golden retriever? (Compliment something in their photograph.)
• When are we going to meet to find out whether we would ever want to kiss each other? (Depending on the person, you can sound cute using this one)

I personally like the simple, pseudo-philosophical questions best (like the ice cream one, and the ‘anywhere in the world’ one). Pretty useful stuff, if e-flirting doesn’t come easily to you.
